mugs sports bar & grill

mugs is not mugs 'n jugs. the new mugs should have its own urbanspoon listing.. we used to eat at mugs 'n jugs when it was on 66th street n., one or two times per week. for ten years! one day, we showed up for lunch and theplacewas gone, without so much as a note in the door. we had eaten there a couple days prior, and no mention was made of a closing. we were on their mailing list and did not receive any mention of a move.

by accident, we found mugs a couple weeks later. the first time we went, theplacewas packed. same menu as mugs 'n jugs in a nicer facility on ulmerton. we waited over 20 minutes for a beer and cocktail. another 25 minutes later, the food arrived. the southwest chicken wrap (which i have ordered, literally, at least 100 times) now contained half the chicken it did before. my husband ordered the brisket as he usually does. his portion, too, was cut from what it used to be. i guess they are paying for the new digs out of their grocery funds. the party of 8 sitting next to us waited over an hour for their food.

ok, we had been regulars and being new location, we gave them a pass. second time, the hockey game was on, which was fine, but it was on full blast on dozens of tv's which are mounted right over the booths. the commercials came on twice as loud--it was painful. food was equally diminished in quantity, but still tasted good.

our last time at mugs, sadly, was this past weekend. we just stopped in for drinks and an app. given the late hour, there was nothing else close. we sat in the bar side, this time. the tables are numbered in such a way that the servers on three occasions brought us food we had not ordered. we watched them walk around asking "did you order this". the food had to be cold by the time it arrived... our shrimp looked like they were served previously and returned by another customer. soggy--nasty. we returned them. our drinks were not better. a cosmo that was so so, a lemon drop that was nothing but lemon juice, a long island tea that was brown kool-aid. the long island tea was returned for a double shot of crown, which came back looking like a single. $40 plus tip. if they stay in business another three or four months, we will assume they fixed their problems and may go back. not for a while, though.

thisplaceis great, i know you think mugs and jugs and you think crap bar food but it's really good. the wait staff is awesome and it really laid out nice. give it a shot

thisplaceis awesome. a big group of us go to mugs n jugs during the football season and we always have a blast. i mean, every game is on one of the many tv's, the waitresses are friendly, the drinks are great and cold and the host always seats us just where we need to be to get the best views of the games to accommodate the different football team fans we have in our family. i have been in thisplacewhen it is extremely busy and never had poor service. the food is perfect to eat while i am cheering on my team. i love to people watch too-football fans can be quite passionate :) i've also went one night when they were doing karaoke-it was a great time!

jackies boobs are hot andplaceis ok

always great. always awesome food and great service, reese especially. boneless wings, buffalo chicken salad and fried pickles are amazing! so glad i have such a greatplaceto grab lunch during the week and watch football on sundays.

great wings, great karaoke. didn't realize there were so many stuffy uptight diners out there. i thought thisplacewas great. our office crew frequents mnj occasionally.the breaded wings are huge, hot and very tasty. prices were decent too. love the bogo drink specials! we had a really nice server (not crazy about their outfits, though- at least be in shape if you're going to wear tight clothing!). but the atmosphere was fun and i will definitely be back.

not impressed, cold food, poor management- a long wait for bar drinks that taste like plain soda, hot beer, and a tired wait staff with no smiles- very loud girls though. our family heard a conversation we didnt need to hear. low classplaceill stick to winghouse where the foods hot and the girls are friendly and more attractive.

only caters to ohio state fans on saturday game days. the decent part of our visit was the food. had the jerk chicken sandwich was was very good, although a bit expensive especially since fries aren't included. the wings are always pretty good too. we had two servers because the first was nearing the end of her shift. the first one took our order, but wasn't too friendly. i guess since the tip was going to the person taking over, she didn't care. the 2nd server was excellent.

the unfortunate side of thisplaceis that if you come to watch a college football game on saturday, don't expect them to allow you to see anything other than ohio state. we were seated well before the osu game and they turned on the game we wanted to see (two florida teams) on just two tvs so that our party sitting on either side of the table could see. as osu fans arrived, they complained that they didn't have enough tvs to see from every possible viewing angle. so the manager changed almost all the tvs to the osu game. we even got into an argument with some of the old women who were sitting directly in front of 3 tvs with the same game on. yes, 3 right in front of them and they wanted them all on osu. there were no fewer than 7 tvs surrounding them with the same game. we asked for only one to see the two fl teams. management sided with them because they're regulars and they loudly voiced their opinion. management also told us that it's an ohio state bar. i guess we didn't get the memo. we drove from tampa to this bar to meet friends just to watch this game. shameful. there's no way we would have chosen thisplaceif we knew we couldn't see the game there. we won't be back. no compensation or anything offered by management. we left at halftime and watched the rest at courtside grill. we mentioned our experience to one of the employees there and he said he experienced the same thing at mugs n jugs recently and won't go back there either. he described the same scenario about mean, female osu fans before we gave him details about our experience. it was hilarious.

business to business. to help my guest find a greatplaceto have fun and grab some great wings that stay in my hotel i have to experience the resturants first. so not only did i go but i brought my family including kids to eat at mugs n jugs. i enjoyed the wings and other sides i ordered and the kids loved karaoke night. you will see more business comming from my way.
sean super 8 st. petersburg/clearwater airport pie

amazing times. ive lived in clearwater my whole life and have enjoyed mugs and jugs ever since. they have great employees who always serve good food. my favorite item to get is the pound of boneless honey bbq wings, and it never fails their cooked perfect. also, i have absolutely no complaints on the entertainment, the kareokee is hilarious. if you are looking for a fun and enjoyable meal even with the family thisplaceis great.

very family oriented!. good food! good people! good times!
mugs is a greatplaceto bring the fam. enjoy karaoke 7 nights.
we love the famous mugs buff. chicken sand. always a great experience.

customer service. as a local of 22 years and a hospitality background of over 18 years i have to say that my experience last night was absolutely unacceptable. from the time we sat down to the end there were many poor reflections on this business. the waitress took orders for drinks a couple at a time then would walk to the computer, only to return trying to upsell the drink...while ringing it in. shouldnt that be something done when "suggestively selling" or taking the order?? empty glasses and dirty plates were left at the table for over an hour in some cases.. we had to ask the host to find our waitress several times... management never came by the table to see how the meal was or how we were doing.... until the end of the night when there were multiple problems with our bills. top all of this off with the "security type guy" that accused members of our group of stealing glassware.. and i will never be back. such a travesty to what was once a greatplaceto meet friends and enjoy a night out. i will definately spread the word on our "experience"

fun place. the food is good, and the staff is friendly. coolplaceto watch sports at, and they have a deck.
